On September 5, 1906, Sydney Borden Scott went back to school. He’d already graduated twice from Atlanta Baptist College, now Morehouse, in 1898 and 1901, then briefly spent time on the other side of the desk, as a principal and 3rd and 4th grade teacher at the East Athens School for “colored” children in East Athens, GA. Now, after a bit of time with the Isthmian (Panama) Canal Commission, he was hitting the books again. His goal: to become a doctor.
